Best-of-breed Reporting and Forensics Engine

APSolute Vision provides an enterprise-wide view of security and attack statuses from a single console. Data from multiple devices can be collected and evaluated in a consolidated view of dashboards and reports.

APSolute Vision provides complete alignment with the enterprise's compliance, regulations and business processes, providing compliance and audit professionals with a complete picture of compliance across the enterprise. It ensures the appropriate separation of duties, collection of information, configuration, and operation auditing mandated by business processes, regulations and information security standards (PCI-DSS, SOX, HIPAA, etc).

Through enhanced role-based
access and logging capabilities,
APSolute Vision ensures all actions
across the application delivery and security
infrastructure, are logged and performed only by
authorized personnel.

In addition, APSolute Vision segregates statistical
and performance data to support job-specifi c views,
dashboards, analysis, and reporting. While executives may
desire to view high-level summary reports, IT professionals
can easily drill into more complex monitoring, reporting
and forensics data.

Tight Integration with Enterprise Data Center NMS

APSolute Vision is designed to tightly integrate with the enterprise data center's network operation centers (NOC) and the network management systems (NMS) used by the NOC operators. Providing NOC operators with a single site-wide monitoring and alerting view of all managed devices and applications, APSolute Vision automatically sends notifications (syslog, email, etc) to the NOC's NMS application. This
ensures network operators are immediately aware of any
problems, and reduces the time to resolution.

Full Alert Lifecycle Management

APSolute Vision provides IT managers with a rich set of tools to manage all the alerts (availability, performance, security, and more) within their infrastructure. Alerts are managed from the moment they surface (identification stage), through ticket opening, analysis, resolution, and verification until the problem is resolved and summarized. This ensures complete
alignment with the business processes of both the
enterprise and NOC/SOC teams.

End-to-End Application Delivery Resource Monitoring

Ensuring that applications receive all the resources to meet their expected SLA requires in-depth real time visibility into the utilization of the application delivery infrastructure.

Radware's APSolute Vision provides centralized monitoring and reporting capabilities that deliver extensive, historical information about applications' resources status and utilization, provided with a clear indication of thresholds boundaries which ensure straightforward tracking of the SLA of the application.

Furthermore, to make the monitoring function more efficient, Radware's historical reports and real-time dashboard employ a drilldown-able layered approach allowing to accumulate the information from across multiple ADC services (whether dedicated, virtualized or Soft ADC), highlighting potential bottlenecks across applications and the application delivery infrastructure, in real-time.

This layered approach coupled with historical reports, also simplifies the processes of resource planning and allocation per application, and enables fast root-cause analysis and instant resolution of potential problems throughout the entire application delivery infrastructure.
